if it meant

if it meant some understanding
i would have been giving
my life, over and over again

taken lessons from Christ himself
on rebirth on demand, off-the-shelf
i would do only the best for you
but he escapes from my view

for what is religion without you holding my hand
what is belief without you making a stand
i only beg you make a stand for me

if it meant some listening
i would have been giving
my life, over and over again

finally invested in public speaking
your eyes are worse than the critics shrieking
i would do only the best for you
but your face isn't in my view

i try to count sheeps but instead i count my sins
for you, for you i would strip down to my skins
i only beg that this time you look inside
